taking a leave of absence/working remotely prior to Round 1

[LawGirl30]

I'm planning on applying this fall and would like to take a FMLA-eligible leave of absence or work remotely for the next several months. My boss loves me and is fully supportive of either option in light of the personal circumstances that are driving me to make this decision. If I do just decide to work remotely (be it 80% to 100% full-time hours):

1) Do I need to make note of this on my application when I list out full-time work experience?

2) Are there negative ramifications to my having to take a FMLA leave 12-15 months prior to matriculation?

Hey there!


If you take your FMLA and return, you are still on the roster, and there's no reason you should put it in your application. Why make trouble where there is none?
